Bridges between the Virtual Data Language (VDL) and Java data structures.

<h2>Package Specification</h2>

This set of related classes represents the Virtual Data Language (VDL)
datastructure inside Java classes. The minimum standard interface is
expressed in {@link org.griphyn.vdl.Chimera}, and further refined for
grouping purposes in the {@link org.griphyn.vdl.classes.VDL} parent.<p>

Most of the classes have their counterparts in the XML schema definition
for VDLx, the XML variant of VDL. All classes contain knowledge to
convert their state back into VDLt and VDLx.<p>
